Come Back

Intro

Soft light, slow breath, mm (mm)

A paper boat on a windowpane, drifting where we began

Verse

You left the kettle on and a half-read book by the bed

Your laugh is folded in the hem of every shirt I wear instead

I count the quiet corners where your shadow used to lean

Like a moth that keeps returning to a lamp I'll never dim

Pre-chorus

If memory is a room, I'm standing in the doorway (stay)

The curtains move like slow hands, pulling night into day (stay)

Chorus

Come back like rain, soft and unafraid (oh-oh)

Come back like a song I almost played (oh-oh)

Hold me like the last line that I can't say (stay) (stay)

Come back, come back, come back

Come back like rain, soft and unafraid (oh-oh)

Come back like a song I almost played (oh-oh)

Hold me like the last line that I can't say (stay) (stay)

Come back, come back, come back

Verse

I trace the map of lips in the steam upon the glass

A thousand little promises that never learned to last

You carved our names in evening on a table worn and thin

Now every mark remembers how the quiet settled in

Pre-chorus

There are photographs on the dresser, edges yellow from the light (remember)

You smiling with your coat on, walking into that night (remember)

Chorus

Come back like rain, soft and unafraid (oh-oh)

Come back like a song I almost played (oh-oh)

Hold me like the last line that I can't say (stay) (stay)

Come back, come back, come back

Come back like rain, soft and unafraid (oh-oh)

Come back like a song I almost played (oh-oh)

Hold me like the last line that I can't say (stay) (stay)

Come back, come back, come back

Bridge

I built a little harbor out of promises and ash

Lighted every window in the shape of your name (ah-ah)

If the moon remembers how we used to laugh, it keeps that yellow half

And I fold my hands and pray to anything that still feels the same (mm)

Chorus

Come back like rain, soft and unafraid (oh-oh)

Come back like a song I almost played (oh-oh)

Hold me like the last line that I can't say (stay) (stay)

Come back, come back, come back

Come back like rain, soft and unafraid (oh-oh)

Come back like a song I almost played (oh-oh)

Hold me like the last line that I can't say (stay) (stay)

Come back, come back, come back
